Rattlesnakes don’t use their fangs when they fight!

Rattlesnakes are amazing animals! While rattlesnakes have a bad reputation, in truth people and rattlesnakes don't often come in contact with one another so people aren't bitten very often.

But if you do meet up with one, be careful! A rattlesnake can bite a victim even after it's head has been removed! Scientists say that it's a reflex action (a response that is built into it's nervous system and doesn't need to be learned).

Rattlesnake heads have been known to make their striking motions for up to one minute after decapitation.

Other interesting fact about rattlesnakes is that if they engage into a fight, they will not use their fangs to poison each other! This is mainly because they wouldn’t really cause harm to each other that way.
